One of the SHF models:

(1) s_w(h)=P_{cow}^{-1}[(\rho_w -\rho_o) g (h-h_{FWL})]

based on implicit solution of the constant pressure gradient equation:

(2) (\rho_w -\rho_o) \cdot g \cdot (h-h_{FWL}) = P_{cow}(s_w)

where \rho_o=\rho_o(T_i, \, p_i) и  \rho_w=\rho_w(T_i, \, p_i) – oil and water densities at initial formation temperature T_i and pressure p_i.


This model requires reliable and representative data bank on capillary pressure at sandface conditions.
